haha I'm not sure you want to ask me about my favorite books...because I have a LOT of them...

I'm assuming you've read Harry Potter, but if for some reason you haven't...yeah, those.

the Song of Ice & Fire series (Game of Thrones, Clash of Kings, Storm of Swords, Feast for Crows and Dance with Dragons) by George RR Martin are an OBSESSION of mine.

Gone with the Wind AND weirdly enough its sequel Scarlett (which wasn't written by Margaret Mitchell and gets mixed reviews, but I love it).

Sense & Sensibility and Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen. I prefer S&S but I know P&P is the general popular favorite.

For non-fiction, The Case for Christ, Saying Yes: In Defense of Drug Use, and Ghost Soldiers.

I also like Frank McCourt a lot; his novel 'Tis is the best, but you shouldn't really read that one without reading Angela's Ashes.

For sort of...shock value in a way, but also brilliant stories and writing: Lullaby (Chuck Palahniuk), White Oleander, The Poisonwood Bible (possibly my fave book of all time), The Picture of Dorian Gray, and The Red Tent.
